What is Bunny.net?
Bunny.net is sprinting on edge breadth — AVIF, API Guardian, seamless migration, and Stream API ergonomics in two weeks.
Bunny.net shipped a heavy April-into-May batch across its full surface area: AVIF input/output in the image Optimizer, image upscaling with resampling, seamless domain migration with DNS-verified SSL, and a new Stream 'Add video library' API endpoint that pre-configures encoding, transcribing, and resolutions in one call. Just outside the recent-six window, API Guardian (April 27) added schema-aware OpenAPI enforcement at the edge inside Bunny Shield. The cadence and breadth is closer to a hyperscaler than a niche CDN.
What is Zed?
Zed 1.26 adds Pyrefly for Python and debugs WebAssembly from the JavaScript debugger.
Zed 1.26.2 adds Pyrefly as an optional built-in Python language server, an expandable variable tree in debugger hovers and DWARF support so the JavaScript debugger can step through WebAssembly sources. Agent work continues in smaller pieces: ACP configuration defaults now apply only to new conversations, model pickers get better fuzzy search, and thinking controls explain when thinking can't be turned off. The previous week's 1.25 line shrank binaries and gave external ACP agents context compaction.

Bunny.net
6.3DEVOPS
Bunny.net is sprinting on edge breadth — AVIF, API Guardian, seamless migration, and Stream API ergonomics in two weeks.
◆ Current state
Bunny.net shipped a heavy April-into-May batch across its full surface area: AVIF input/output in the image Optimizer, image upscaling with resampling, seamless domain migration with DNS-verified SSL, and a new Stream 'Add video library' API endpoint that pre-configures encoding, transcribing, and resolutions in one call. Just outside the recent-six window, API Guardian (April 27) added schema-aware OpenAPI enforcement at the edge inside Bunny Shield. The cadence and breadth is closer to a hyperscaler than a niche CDN.
◆ Where it's heading
Bunny.net is staying the affordable alternative to Cloudflare and Fastly while matching feature breadth release-by-release. The trajectory keeps adding capabilities up the stack — first CDN, then image optimization, then video streaming, now API security and zero-downtime migration. Each addition is a reason to consolidate workloads on Bunny instead of stitching multiple vendors. Expect continued pressure on the edge incumbents from below.
◆ Prediction
Watch for AI-related edge primitives — model-serving at the edge, AI inference workers — that would put Bunny.net into Cloudflare Workers AI territory. The Stream API expansion suggests video AI (auto-transcription, scene detection) is also imminent.
Zed
5.0DEVOPS
Zed 1.26 adds Pyrefly for Python and debugs WebAssembly from the JavaScript debugger.
◆ Current state
Zed 1.26.2 adds Pyrefly as an optional built-in Python language server, an expandable variable tree in debugger hovers and DWARF support so the JavaScript debugger can step through WebAssembly sources. Agent work continues in smaller pieces: ACP configuration defaults now apply only to new conversations, model pickers get better fuzzy search, and thinking controls explain when thinking can't be turned off. The previous week's 1.25 line shrank binaries and gave external ACP agents context compaction.
◆ Where it's heading
Zed is splitting attention between its agent panel, where ACP agents keep gaining the same session handling as Zed's own, and core editor depth in languages and debugging. Weekly stable releases with community-contributed features and quick model additions remain the pattern.
◆ Prediction
Expect 1.27 next week with more ACP session and model-picker work, plus further debugger and language-server additions.
